...question has been raised why the route of the torch-light procession does not lie in Boston? Why the students should not accommodate their Boston friends by visiting that city instead of simply marching through provincial Cambridge? We need only say in the first place that the procession was not originated as a form of amusement for the inhabitants of any particular section, and in the second place that to transfer the scene of the celebration to Boston would render the whole occasion ridiculous.

Harvard has made great strides in the last few years, and I am proud to be in it. There are however, some inequalities that still need to be remedied: I do not think the upperclassmen are quite kind enough in inviting freshmen to their rooms or taking freshmen into their society. It would make us feel better if a helping hand were stretched to us and we were invited to mingle more freely with the other...
